Mole Poll: Most readers agree it’s not safe to travel to Egypt
Arthur Frommer recently upset many in the travel industry when he declared that he believes travel to Egypt is not safe.
His views drew passionate responses from both sides of the fence and the story was one of our most ‘commented on’ pieces.
So, should the travel industry embrace President Morsi’s official statements on the importance of tourism to the new administration, or should it wait until protests over the film ‘The Innocence of Muslims‘ and other Middle Eastern disturbances subside?
In our latest Mole Poll, we asked you, TravelMole readers, for your opinion.
We asked you "Is it safe to travel to Egypt", and here’s what you said:
61% said "no"
16% said "yes"
23% said "we need more information to decide".
